Doing another survey because I'm curious to see which species and subspecies of catfish all of you guys keep. I don't have as long a list as some of you but mine are still nice. Feel free to make multiple lists if you want say ones you've kept, ones you are keeping and ones you are getting. You could say what size tank you are keeping it in, etc. Also post pictures if you can, I'm sure others would love to see some of your guys beautiful catfish! Remember, you can have a page long list but list ALL your species please.

I'll start (only doing ones I am keeping or am about to get otherwise the list would be overflowing :)) :

I'm currently keeping:
Bronze Corydoras (Corydoras aeneus) In my 30 Tall
Striped Raphael Catfish (Platydoras armatulus) In my 75
Asian Bumblebee Catfish (Pseudomystus siamensis) In my 30 Tall
Sailfin Pleco L165 (Pterygoplichthys gibbiceps) In my 75 (upgrading when to big)

I'm picking these up at my LFS in 2 weeks all for my 75 gallon:
Jaguar Catfish (Liosomadoras oncinus) Will be in my 75Spotted Raphael Catfish (Agamyxis pectinifrons) Will be in my 75

I used to keep a trio of Sun Cats. Cool looking and all but weren't very active.
